mac-ssh-askpass
===============

An Aqua_-based passphrase dialogue for use not only with OpenSSh_.

``mac-ssh-askpass`` asks for a passphrase on macOS, using the graphical
user interface. It conforms to the so-called `SSh Askpass Protocol`_.

I wrote this because I was looking for something simple,
but couldn't find anything.


.. _Aqua: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aqua_(user_interface)

.. _OpenSSh: https://www.openssh.com/

.. _`SSh Askpass Protocol`: https://man.openbsd.org/ssh-add


Synopsis
========

``SSH_ASKPASS=mac-ssh-askpass ssh-add </dev/null``


Getting ``mac-ssh-askpass``
===========================

Disclaimer
----------

You use ``mac-ssh-askpass`` **at your own risk**. You have been warned.


Download and Installation
-------------------------

``mac-ssh-askpass`` is a simple AppleScript.
It should work on any version on any version of macOS.

Download the repository from:
<https://codeload.github.com/odkr/mac-ssh-askpass/tar.gz/v1.0.0>

Then copy ``mac-ssh-askpass`` to a directory in your ``PATH``,
*/usr/local/bin* is a good choice, and make it executable.

You can do this by saying::

curl https://codeload.github.com/odkr/mac-ssh-askpass/tar.gz/v1.0.0 |
tar -xz
# Check the source!
more mac-ssh-askpass-1.0.0/mac-ssh-askpass
# If -- and only if -- you like what you see, continue by:
sudo mkdir -pm 0755 /usr/local/bin
sudo cp mac-ssh-askpass-1.0.0/mac-ssh-askpass /usr/local/bin

There isn't much of a point in keeping the repository around,
so you may then wish to say::

rm -rf mac-ssh-askpass-1.0.0
